I'm off the September Bus before it even leaves the station and thanks to my longer cycle I thought I'd start the October page.

TTC #1
Cycle #3
BFP due October 4th

I’ve done what I always tell people not to do! Did an internet cheapie, left it while I did other things, went back to it well over the time limit and I’m now looking at it under the window trying to determine if it’s an evap line or not Hmm my head tells me of course it’s an evap but my heart won’t let me throw it away!!

Hopefulbunny · 30/09/2017 17:19

Hi can I join please, I'm pretty sure I won't be on long AF due this week and had some cramping already so not feeling too hopeful. Does anyone else have any symptoms?

Hope to see more BFP'S!

BeautifulLiar · 30/09/2017 17:50

I've had "symptoms"! Yesterday I had, out of nowhere, a seriously metallic taste. Like I was actually drinking blood. This has been a pregnancy sign for me on the past... Also I cried today. Tbf it took me and DP FIVE HOURS to put up a roller blind, then when it came to the big moment and we put it on the brackets it was too fucking short! So that's probably why I cried Blush

Fia256 · 30/09/2017 18:00

@BeautifulLiar that’s sounding positive especially the metallic taste! I also cried yesterday. During dinner. Because I felt ill. Kids and hubby looked at me gone out as if I was losing my mind Blush

HolyShmoly · 30/09/2017 18:11

I've swung back around to thinking this isn't our month. Again.
My boobs are sore and swollen but that's the only consistent symptom I've had, really. POAS tomorrow anyway, as I'm going out tomorrow night and have a gym induction on Monday that I'd like to know beforehand.

It's so frustrating. I know that logically, it can take 12 months for most couples. It still feels like I'm doing something wrong and I don't know what.

Can I have your opinions please because apparently I'm too dim to work this out 😣 (It's the one at the bottom)

Ah that’s a difficult one @UnicornsandRainbows1 I would probably say if you did one tomorrow it’ll be darker than the control line! I’d dtd tonight if I was you just incase that’s your positive

UnicornsandRainbows1 · 30/09/2017 19:46

@Fia I was thinking it'll either be darker than the control line tomorrow or that's it. It's too stupidly tricky to determine.

On another note, I hope you're doing a bit better than earlier in the month Smile

Flatwhite31 · 30/09/2017 20:23

I've got a flashing smiley on a digital OPK this evening. Have never had that before, even when I was TTC before! Will try to DTD tonight if we can find the energy!

MegEmski · 30/09/2017 20:24

How's everyone's Saturday been?

@UnicornsandRainbows1 glad not just me that struggles with those!

Fia256 · 30/09/2017 21:43

I’ve just done an ovulation test (Im ashamed to say I’ve ran out of my stash of frer Blush) and it’s as close to positive as you could get. I did an IC test earlier which looked like it was either an evap or very VERY faint line. I’ve only got one rubbish cheap test left for the morning which I doubt will pick anything up, so now I’m going to have to wait all afternoon for my next delivery of frer to arrive after work! Trying to not get my hopes up especially after the start of the month

MegEmski · 30/09/2017 22:02

@Fia256 ooh so have you used an ovulation test as a sort of preggers test? Or am I being dim?

Fia256 · 30/09/2017 22:10

@MegEmski I’m super ashamed to say yes I have! I just desperately had to pee on something BlushGrin

Mummyloves09 · 01/10/2017 01:40

Hey ladies,

Due to pain in my right lower Tummy I had to see the out of hours dr who confirmed I was pregnant (in addition to the hpt) but I am at A&E as they suspect it could be an ectopic pregnancy due to the pain. Hopefully it's okShock

BeautifulLiar · 01/10/2017 04:43

Oh god Mummy, I hope you're ok! Please keep us updated xx

Fia256 · 01/10/2017 05:25

Oh no @Mummyloves09 how worrying for you! Thinking about you and I really hope everything is ok!!

Fia256 · 01/10/2017 06:23

So annoyed! Been desperate for the loo most the night. Held it in, went with my last cheap rubbish one and an ovulation test Wink open both to do at the same time, the ovulation test has the important part of it missing so that’s one test gone! And then my cheapie was a faulty test and the dye didn’t run over properly!
So now it’s 6am Sunday morning, I’m full of cold, tired but can’t sleep and now in a bad mood!!!

UnicornsandRainbows1 · 01/10/2017 07:40

@Mummyloves09 Oh how horrible. Hope everything is okay and the pain subsides.

@Fia You're full of bad luck this morning. What will you do now?!

Mummyloves09 · 01/10/2017 07:49

Good morning ladies,
After getting in at 4am, I am getting ready to go back to the hospital to have a early scan apparently.
The hospital was very busy and yesterday on the gyno department. So they ask me to come back this morning.
I believe in my heart of heart I'm ok as the same issue happened with my DD age 7. When they scanned me I was fine however dr said just to make sure as every pregnancy is different.
Fill you in once this palava is over.

Mummyloves09 · 01/10/2017 07:53

@fia256 I hope your day gets better as it progresses

BeautifulLiar · 01/10/2017 07:53

That sounds promising Mummy (feels weird writing that?!) I hope everything is ok :)

Fia oh no!! Are you going shopping today?

I just took a picture of my boobs to see if they've grown Blush

piglet81 · 01/10/2017 07:56

Finger crossed for a good outcome Mummyloves09.

Fia256 · 01/10/2017 08:03

@Mummyloves09 I hope all goes ok today. I don’t know much about ectopic but hopefully the fact they’ve sent you home is a good sign!

I have an amazon delivery coming today! But I’m out all morning/afternoon so it’ll be a long wait!! I do feel like maybe it was a sign this morning though to just stop bloody testing!!

UnicornsandRainbows1 · 01/10/2017 08:15

@Fia it probably was but why listen to it?? Grin

@Mummyloves09 Fingers crossed it's okay if you've had the same previously. Will be thinking of you today

UnicornsandRainbows1 · 01/10/2017 08:18

I present to you this mornings so I'm guessing yesterday was the start. My body did something right finally within the last 3 poxy months
